Number 26 on my Ann Arbor Bucket List was to have brunch at Cafe Zola. I went around 1pm, which doesn’t exactly scream “brunch time” to me, but they serve brunch until 4…so, I’m counting it, clearly. Cafe Zola doesn’t take brunch reservations unless you have a big party, and when we arrived, it was … More A2 Bucket List: Brunch at Cafe Zola

My sister and my best friend both live in New York City and – I’m not going to lie – sometimes I get a little jealous of this fact and wonder why I didn’t pick a law school in a bigger city. I’m not sure if I even want to end up in New York, … More A2 Bucket List: Mani Osteria

Number 45 on my Ann Arbor Bucket List was having a margarita at the Prickly Pear. This is one bucket list item that I’d done plenty of times in undergrad but love so much that I wanted to do and document again. The Prickly Pear is a lovely little Mexican restaurant in downtown Ann Arbor … More A2 Bucket List: Prickly Pear Margaritas

Number 4 on my Ann Arbor Bucket List was to see a movie at the State Theater. I had visited a couple times in undergrad (once for Garden State, once for Juno), but it’s always good to go back. The State is a lovely little theater. It’s definitely past its prime – you can see … More A2 Bucket List: The State Theater
